Serves :

4

Complexity :

Easy

Ingredients :

300 grams fresh tomatoes (you can use tomatoes in different colors)
1 small cucumber
1 small onion
A small bunch of cilantro
Juice of 1/4 lemon
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Directions :

The secret of the salad is how small you can chop the tomatoes, cucumber, and onion. When they are chopped into small pieces, then you get all of them in a bit and it makes a huge difference!
1- Chop the tomatoes (with the skin), the cucumber, and onion into very small pieces.


2- Place them in a large bowl.


3- Chop the cilantro and add it to the bowl.
4- Add the lemon juice, vegetable oil, salt and pepper to taste.
5- Mix well.


Serve this salad cold! You can make it look fancy by plating it using a large cookie cutter that you put on a plate, fill it with the salad, pack, then slowly remove the cookie cutter.
